SUMMARY:Fisheries Stakeholder Consultation Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The Barbados Marine Spatial Plan (BMSP) is hosting a series of stakeholder consultations to present draft options for organizing marine activities. These options draw on information from project partners and data collected from local stakeholders. These sessions are designed to gather meaningful feedback that will help refine and identify the most suitable management approach for Barbados’ marine space. Phase One focuses on discussions with key sectoral users whose expertise and day-to-day experience at sea are essential to shaping practical solutions. Phase Two will expand the conversation to communities and the wider public\, ensuring that all voices can contribute to the final Marine Spatial Plan.

DESCRIPTION:The Barbados Marine Spatial Plan (BMSP) is hosting a series of stakeholder consultations to present draft options for organizing marine activities. These options draw on information from project partners and data collected from local stakeholders. These sessions are designed to gather meaningful feedback that will help refine and identify the most suitable management approach for Barbados’ marine space. Phase One focuses on discussions with key sectoral users whose expertise and day-to-day experience at sea are essential to shaping practical solutions. Phase Two will expand the conversation to communities and the wider public\, ensuring that all voices can contribute to the final Marine Spatial Plan.

SUMMARY:Bathymetric Survey
DESCRIPTION:Barbados will launch its first-ever bathymetric survey in partnership with the Marine Institute of Ireland\, marking a major milestone in the Marine Spatial Planning process. This deep-sea research mission will explore and map the seafloor and water column in an outer section of Barbados’ Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ)\, areas that have never been studied at this scale before. \n\n\n\nThe survey will provide critical data on the island’s deep marine environment\, helping to fill key knowledge gaps about underwater features\, habitats\, and ocean dynamics. This scientific expedition follows a recent planning visit by the Irish team\, during which the vessel agreement was signed and logistics for the mission were finalized. \n\n\n\nThis collaboration supports Barbados’ goal of sustainably managing its marine space through science-based planning and is an important step toward the development of the country’s first Marine Spatial Plan.
